I got a set of triangular shaped plates from my sister. No box, nothing. They are about the size of salad plates. On each plate, in one corner, there is a tiny raised circular lip. Like maybe where a sauce dish would go? *shrug*

What exactly do I have? What are they called, what are they used for?

I'm unrefined in the field of "fine dining." Around these parts, we spell classy with a K.

I should add, my sister doesn't know what they are. They were left in the house she just moved into.

What material are they made of? Do they have a stamp on the bottom with a brand or manufacturing information?

Perhaps there was a reason why they were left behind. Maybe the previous owners didn't know what the heck they were either.

I doubt it. The woman of the house was HUGE on entertainment. She passed away a few years ago. Her husband lived alone till he went into assisted living recently. Their children have established homes so they left most of the stuff in the house for my sister to go thru and keep or get rid of.
